Posts: 186 Chattanooga, TN | I am considering a job in Nashville TN starting next summer. Saw there are some sailing clubs there but was wondering about what type of cat sailing was around that area. Any info would be appreciated as this is a part of the decision about the job.
Thanks
Jody

Well, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two Guitar pickers in Nashville And they can pick more notes than the number of ants On a Tennessee anthill Yeah, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two Guitar cases in Nashville And any one that unpacks his guitar could play Twice as better than I will
/ C - / G7 - / / C - / / F - / G7 - / C - /
Yeah, I was just thirteen, you might say I was a Musical proverbial knee-high When I heard a couple new-sounding tunes on the tubes And they blasted me sky-high And the record man said every one is a yellow Sun Record from Nashville And up north there ain't nobody buys them And I said, but I will
And it was {Refrain}
Well, there's sixteen thousand eight hundred twenty one Mothers from Nashville All their friends play music, and they ain't uptight If one of the kids will Because it's custom made for any mother's son To be a guitar picker in Nashville And I sure am glad I got a chance to say a word about The music and the mothers from Nashville

Posts: 1,121 Eastern NC, USA | There is a Hobie Fleet in Nashville, as well. I think there are a lot of H17s and a few H20/Miracles, not sure about other manufacturers. I think they are on Percy Priest Lake. There is a pretty active J22 fleet on the lake, as well. http://www.hcana.hobieclass.com/ has some contact names.

Unregistered | Hi Jody, This is Mike W previously from Shreveport and previously from Nashville. Sorry, but no cat sailing in Nashville. We used to travel to Memphis, Birmingham, and Atlanta to race. I had to switch to monohulls to get my racing in. Check out these clubs. Harbor Island Yacht Club Lightnings, Lasers, and PHRF Percy Priest Yacht Club J22s, S7.9s, Catalina 22s, and PHRF Except for limited racing, we enjoyed living around Nashville. Good Luck | | |
